That's outrageous!

Approximately half of those rolls are dispensing their sheets "under-arm" instead of the aesthetically pleasing, practical and totally correct way of "over-arm".

 

Unforgivable...

The 'underarm' approach is considered feminine and how women install the rolls because it looks neater and is tidier, while 'overarm' is masculine and how men fit them as it is more practical and easier to grab the loose end. The 'aesthetic' way is the hotel method of folding the end in to a point. Why?

To prove that the cleaner has cleaned the room.

 

Or at least entered it.....

Nope, it's so you can winkle out the clinker.

Underarm or overarm, all the rolls on the horizontal rollers are incorrectly installed because as soon as enough paper has been removed for the roll to clear the wall, if a user leaves a long enough length of paper dangling, the roll will unspool itself as gravity takes over, leaving a heap on the floor as if a naughty Labrador puppy or a devious Koala has been having fun.

 

To avoid this, it is essential to give the roll a squeeze so the cardboard tube deforms from "O" into a "()", thus preventing over-run!

 

Overarm is better anyway as you're not fumbling under the roll to find the free end.

 

That is if it hasn't already spilled all over the floor...

 

:crazy:

Where's hit high vis' jacket, hard hat, safety goggles and safety boots?

 

Once he's fallen off the wall, all the above are irrelevant, apart from the hi-vis jacket, which would make photographing the position of the corpse easier for the ensuing H&S report...
